Bottom Line: Great quality, easy to use, looks great, pulls a great shot consistently and I imagine that I'll never need to upgrade.

Bottom Line: Just my opinion, but the most logical choice for the money. For me, I would only go from here to a double boiler rotary (maybe when I retire and have plenty of money!)
